While doing my research for tomorrow's election, (who are my choices, what do they stand for, etc) I noticed something very peculiar. Ever since Bush took office, the Republicans and the Democrats seem to have switched on some very important issues. Specifically,the Democrats seem to have taken over as the more fiscally responsible party! I'm sure it's just in reaction to Bush's reckless disregard for our national budget, but it's good to see that the Democrats have picked up where the Republicans left off.
Another interesting observation I have made about the party platforms is that the Republicans have taken over as the "look to government to solve all of your problems" party. Just listen to their rhetoric about terrorism, illegal immigrants, family values, natural disasters, emergency preparedness, weapons of mass destruction, homosexuals, disease pandemics, etc, etc. No wonder anxiety and depression have become national epidemics!
That being said, I plan to vote Democrat for House and Senate seats tomorrow and a mixture of Republican, Democrat and Libertarian (where my heart truly lies) for the other positions. He seems like a bit of a nut job and might be a serial killer, but my favorite candidate is John Wayne Smith.
